This is Southbrook Vineyards on the Niagara Stone Road. As it faces south in an open expanse, it has reflections of the sky all through the day. This is the reflecting sky at sunset. It is an imposing structure - the wall stretches 200 metres long and is periwinkle blue in colour. It changes in the day's light from the deep blue we see here to a dove grey in bright light. In front of the building there usually are ponds reflecting the wall and building.
Jack Diamond is the architect and the building won the 2009 International Architecture Award. Looking out from the winery, one sees the Skyway that stretches over the Welland Canal. The picture shown here was taken in the spring of 2012 and the flowers in the field are dandelions.
